Of course not. They aren't barbarians.

hand. I turned out OK.

Mom- Never
Housekeeper- Swatted me with her hand a couple of times
Dad- Belt except one time with a switch.
Principals- Leather strap
My own kids, my hand only.
If I had to do it over, I probably wouldn't used corporal punishment.

Belt, palm frond switches, boat paddle.

Thick leather belt on the regular. I definitely deserved it. I turned out ok, shocking I know.

My parents generally asked me what I had done wrong. I would lie. They would ask again. I'd tell them a semi-truth. They would remind me of my obligation to fess up. I'd fess up. They'd then explain where the behavior leads. I'd process that. I'd then have privileges taken away or have extra chores. I'd have to then live with my parent's disapproval, which was the greatest punishment. They'd say things like "we love you" and "make us proud". It was insane. I went my whole life with out getting physically beaten by my parents and now my 17,15, and 12 year old can say the same. I wish I would have known I could have shortcut the whole nurture/Socratic parenting thing and just beat the shite out of them with inanimate objects. That would have saved me a shitload of time, walking them through expectations and consequences and all that "talky" crap.Authoritarian parenting and physical violence sounds like the shiznit.

Nope.
Is this the thread where everyone says they were beat and it helped them, so we should continue beating the next generation? If so, Adrian Peterson approves of your handy work.

That is how I was raised and how I raised mine also. It takes a lot more time to physically watch your children do extra chores and repeat them if they are not done correctly or "done with an attitude" and explaining actions vs. consequences than it does to swat. I have children with a great work ethic who stay out of trouble and will raise my grandchildren without striking them though so I think it is a win/win.
*my children have actually asked for a spanking instead of a lecture or punishment because that is what their friends got and it was over quickly. Your teacher/boss/SO is not going to swat you and have it be over so it is best to learn to converse rationally early on in life.

Meh I whipped mine I am a lazy pathetic parent. 
I maybe have spanked all 3 of my kids a total of 5 times in 18 years. They know when dad has had enough and they will get "the look". 3 great kids and I would not have changed the way I parented them.

I usually got a spanking on the 3rd offense for something. An extra lick every time after that and my parents would refer to where I had written the offense in my own handwriting on the breadboard.
Shirking chores was not a spankable offense.
Bad language, acting afool in public and fighting (with my sister or other kids) would earn me a paddle.
I had a handful of language spankings... only one for the others.

We have great kids. We'd probably feel differently if we had little hellions. My philosophy is that home is the safe place, and not a place for violence and anxiety. If I sense disharmony, I get everybody in a room and we talk stuff out.If I hit my kids I'd feel like the biggest failure. It would feel like betrayal. Like I had nothing in the arsenal besides anger and violence. Again, they have never really needed it, so maybe I've just been really lucky.And I certainly respect people who have arrived at other conclusions. But seriously, I have never even swatted my dog. I just don't do violence. And I was the kid in HS that was always getting in fights. So I know I'm capable of violence. Just not against my own.
I visit clients in the evening and I see how people talk to their kids. It freaks me out. I can't believe that parents think threatening children so aggressively really works. It's like a Maslow's hierarchy of needs thing, it seems like they are barely holding on, instead of thriving. The goal should be children who thrive.

No, not even once.
Posted on 2/21/16 at 2:54 pm to PeteRose
Yes, usually with a belt
Posted on 2/21/16 at 3:16 pm to PeteRose
Never spanked as a kid, just as an adult
